yeah thats alright man! 30mm is ok, you will want more after
but yeah like me, i bought teins s tech for $300 delivered.. 5.25 drop at the front and 4.75.. reason they are different is because the car sits evenly. king springs provide 30 mm all round. but the front its way higher then the back.
coilovers is a defs if your thinking of getting someone professional to do your springs. you will end up paying the same.. either springs, quick and easy. do it your self or coilovers for 1.2k BC RACING. cant go wrong.. camber, any height and 30 different levels of hard and soft.
for springs man, 4 hours max if you dont know what yur doing. i went by videos and i did mine looks good. no point paying someone 400 bucks to install and 400 for springs. hope this helped.

Erin are these prices supplied & fitted ?
Angels Are Sometimes Disguised As Friends
Yeah if thats just fitment thats crazy
Pedders installed my coilovers for $500 and I knew it was a ripoff, but that was at least including height adjustments and camber adjustments etc... And they took it for a decent but not excessive test drive according to my odo.
I think I'd attempt it myself if I tried it again...

hey guys/girls who havnt installed coilovers before and thinks its very hard, in fact it is very very easy, to change springs on your factory strut you have to do the same thing to change them out,
its like 7 bolts per corner then take out stock spring/shock then direct change to coilover then rebolt back up then enjoy the transformation of your car and how much quicker you can go round corners and how much its more composed it is around corners
i think you can get bc v1 for 1100 delivered, but there could be cheaper ones on ebay, but carnt vouch for it.

So Ricky you fitted your own?
So removing your springs in OEM struts don't require any special tools?
I suggest people who don't know what they are doing stop giving advice to others.
I see a common occurrence here. Erin you bought reverse parking sensors cheap but could not fit them yourself or afford to pay a business to install them. Now you have bought cheap springs and you can't fit them.
Modding a car is never cheap especially if you can't do the work yourself.
As I told you via a pm fitting lowered springs on a car with over 100,000km is a waste of money. Your shockers will also need replacing. Either save up for coilovers or do nothing. Lowered springs dramatically shorten the life of shockers especially if driven normally over speed humps, spoon drains and bumps or roads with pot holes.
Good luck getting your springs installed.
